2012 Bloggy Best and Brightest

I'm relatively new to the blogging world. I got started in August of 2012 and have slowly been figuring out this whole teacher blogging process.

My Brightest Blog spot I would have to say is actually STARTING the blog to begin with.

My interactive Math Notebook posts have been getting a lot of looks.

My Exponents Foldable and my post about the BIG TIME need for MATH VOCABULARY was pretty popular.

My BEST Blog news of the year is winning a Liebster Award. That was a great opportunity, and came at a time when I wasn't sure if people were really interested in what I had to say. I was nominated by Gina at Beach Sand and Lesson Plans.... I have to give her a shout out, I'm partial to her name since it is so similar to mine. She has a great blog!

Finally, my Best Freebie is just a simple writing activity for Character Education that I created to go with a lesson at school on Bullying. I used it with a book called Just Kidding. The post link is above. I received a lot of positive feedback at school for it, and considering all of the recent events at Sandy Hook, I believe it is a lesson my students will take to heart. You can download it here.
